The modern Mini doesn't do it for me I'm afraid they drive like any other modern car.
The Classic will always be in my heart passed my test in one first time in 79 lost count how many I have had.
Done the Wyedean Rally in one twice and finished the first time after a roll in the snow.
Drove the whole of NZ in one in 17 trouble free.
Yes the Classic is a Special little car.
A health and safety nightmare
No guard on the fan
Filing cabinet looks a death trap , she'll be lucky to survive a day in that office poor girl

Dems quite of late anyone heard from him ?If she needs a fan, she’s probably got thrush and she’s probably binning her knickers to get rid of the discharge. Poor girl.
My very first car in 1978. Absolute rust bucket....when I drove through puddles of water it would come up through the floor. Held together by Holts Plastic padding...remember it?!

What's the story with the white one ?My first Mini and first car - a Belgian built 1000 'Special' with wing repeaters (posh!) and peeling vinyl roof, it also had a retro fitted Innocenti dash and the smallest steering wheel known to man....

Good analogy. I rented an MX5 in South Australia in'89 and really enjoyed it. Great handling and red line everywhere without going too fast. I was forewarned not to buy a Prince engine (07-12?) - Thanks Dicky! Therefore I bought a couple of R53 Cooper S this year to teach my daughter to drive. One of my son's pinched the first one and is busy 'enhancing' with Oz racing wheels, Miltek exhaust and big brakes. Between my daughter and I, we covered 2500 really fun miles in the 2nd. I was genuinely surprised how much fun it was. Sold yesterday to allow nephew to learn in it but will buy back at some point and start the upgrading myself. Lots of car for £2k and feels much better made than regular hatches.I bought bini Cooper a few months ago , I thought it was a right laugh to drive , it wasn't that fast but stuck to the road really well , reminded me of a MX5 but with 4 seats
It didn't last long with me as it had the Prince engine so I got rid before it exploded
